We had a great day yesterday eating, drinking and gambling on football. The thing is, we can’t forget about Monday night. Our forefathers put in the Constitution that every Monday night during football season, we the people are to get an NFL game. We can’t let their efforts go to waste by not betting on it. It wouldn’t be right.

The good news is, we’ve got a matchup between the Buffalo Bills and New York Jets so it will be impossible to forget this game is happening. On top of that, we’ve got studs all over the field so it should be fun to watch.

All we need to do now is find two plus-money bangers and our night is all set. Don’t worry, I already took care of the bangers. Felt like the right thing to do.

James Cook Is Playing Tonight

We’re at the time of the season where we need to read tea leaves to know if guys are playing. It’s not their fault though, they’re out there getting slammed around by other giant dudes. It’s actually crazy, more guys don’t hurt. And with all of these hits, things flare up causing guys to sit out of practice making it impossible to know if they’re playing.

Lucky for us, we already know James Cook is playing tonight.

Bills Pro-Bowl RB James Cook will practice today despite his toe injury and plans to play Monday night vs. the Jets, per his agency LAA.

Obviously James Cook is in play everytime he puts his uniform on. But tonight, I think we should look past his rushing yards and into his receiving stuff. Can he rush for 60+ yards tonight? Of course he can. We’re talking James Cook here people. The guy can do what he wants.

But anytime we bet the NFL, we have to look at everything. All of it. And when we dive deep into this thing, we can see that James Cook is catching at least three balls tonight. It’s supposed to be super windy tonight in East Rutherford so I’m guessing ADOTs are low. We’re talking dumpoff city here people. Feels right.

• The Pick: James Cook Over 2.5 Receptions (+120) at DraftKings

Tyler Conklin Needs To Be Respected

Every time I post a Tyler Conklin bet, the haters show up in droves. For whatever reason, they don’t like him. But here’s the thing, the books are always hanging low numbers on this guy and he’s constantly covering them.

To find out why, we don’t have to look any further than the fact that he is a dawg.

“Tyler Conklin is a dawg man. He deserves everything what’s about to come his way, cause the world doesn’t know. He didn’t do some extraordinarily thing tonight, that’s just Tyler. That’s how he balls, & he has a lot more to give.”- Garrett Wilson#Jets pic.twitter.com/OyZDxRVtPo

This one is so easy. For starters, Aaron Rodgers loves Tyler Conklin. He’s targeted Conklin at least eight times in each fo the last two weeks. Legit can’t get enough of Conklin.

On top of that, on the season, opponents have targeted the tight end position versus the Bills 40 times. That’s the ninth most in the NFL. Keep in mind, the other teams have played six games whereas the Bills have only played five. The tight end is an obvious attack surface against the Bills and the Jets have one that can get loose.

This could easily go down as the greatest bet of all time. Maybe better.

• The Pick: Tyler Conklin Over 3.5 Receptions (+122) at FanDuel

As Monday Night Football approaches in Week 6, fans and bettors alike are eagerly anticipating the matchup between the Buffalo Bills and the New York Jets. While the game itself is sure to be exciting, there are also plenty of player prop bets to consider for those looking to add an extra layer of excitement to the action.

One player prop bet that stands out for this game is the over/under on Josh Allen’s passing yards. Allen has been on fire this season, leading the Bills to a 4-1 record and putting up impressive numbers along the way. The Jets defense has struggled against the pass, giving up an average of 266.8 passing yards per game. With Allen’s arm strength and ability to make plays downfield, taking the over on his passing yards could be a smart bet.

Another player prop bet to consider is the over/under on Stefon Diggs’ receiving yards. Diggs has quickly become Allen’s favorite target this season, racking up 555 receiving yards and three touchdowns through five games. The Jets secondary has been vulnerable to big plays, so Diggs could have a big game on Monday night. Taking the over on his receiving yards could pay off handsomely.

For those looking for a more risky bet, consider placing a wager on Devin Singletary scoring a touchdown. Singletary has been splitting carries with Zack Moss in the Bills’ backfield, but he has shown flashes of explosiveness and playmaking ability. The Jets defense has struggled against the run, so Singletary could find the end zone on Monday night.

Overall, there are plenty of player prop bets to consider for Monday Night Football Week 6 between the Buffalo Bills and the New York Jets. Whether you’re betting on Allen’s passing yards, Diggs’ receiving yards, or Singletary scoring a touchdown, there are opportunities to cash in on some exciting player performances. As always, be sure to do your research and consider all factors before placing your bets.
